Maybe I'm not understanding you correctly but, I Don't want to use the phone to connect a laptop to the internet as in the tethering package that AT&T offers...

I simply want to connect it to the PC (not a laptop) to dial fax numbers and send faxes thru the phone so that I can have my Land line disconnected...

Anyone have an answer ?

Thanks,
Steve~

badword, Sorry. I've been mad busy.

Installed Motorola USB driver (*supplied on cd, or website herehttp://commerce.motorola.com/cgi-bin/ncomm...=1&zipcode=
created a Dial up connection through windows (XP sp2)
phone number = *99#
username: WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM
password: CINGULAR1
Next go to Control Panel>
Phone and Modems>
click on Motorola USB ... >
Properties > Advanced tab >
type +CGDCONT=1,"IP","apn_name" (*Replacing apn_name with your APN like WAP.CINGULAR <<NOTICE THE UPPERCASE!)

Here is the newest usb drivers January 18, 2008


This USB Driver is used for connecting your Motorola handset to a 32-bit Windows computer via a USB cable.

Ok, I went out and purchased a bluetooth dongle for my laptop because I don't like wires. It was about 30 bucks and it rocks.

you tell your phone to accept connections from your laptop and it will use the modem on the phone and expect to get about 320bps and 128 up.

And never ever tell AT&T your doing this. I had to show the guys at the ATT store how to do this. Otherwise you will pay for tethering.

Now piss off I'm busy biggrin.gif

Hi Jason,

Did I loose you on this ?

Long nap I guess...Lol

I am able to tether for Internet connection...but still the question is how to use the Q9h as a phone modem for Faxing from the PC...

The PC does not see it that way...Or at least that I can tell..

Thanks again....Anyone ?

Greetings Everyone...First Time Post Here...



I just upgraded from a V3 Razr to a Q9h...My first smartphone...

So I have been reading here for the last few days, and have not come across my issue, but have found a bunch of useful info so far in my looking...Thanks Much...



My main issue is: I would like to make the complete switch to my mobile, and cancel my land line/s but before I can do that, I need to be able to use the Q9h as a Fax modem since I run a small A/C business out of my home, and most of my customer billing is done via Fax from Quickbooks Pro....



AT&T tells me I need a "Tethering" package at a cost of between 60 to 85 bucks a month... Not so bad considering I would be saving on the land line costs but here's the deal...The tethering packages that have Internet & text messaging are limited on both (namely a 1500 text limit) and I exceed that every month



From what I understand...The Tethering package allows you to setup the phone as a Modem to connect the PC to the Internet...I don't need that since I have high speed cable access...



What I'm having a hard time understanding, or accepting is: Jeeze...It's just a phone call as on a land line...To another land line...Why can that not be done ? (I guess it can with the Tethering package) But all I think I need is to get the PC to recognize the Q9h as a phone modem...not a Internet modem



Does anyone know of software, driver, or a cab file etc..that can solve my dilemma ?



Thanks in advance for any responses..



Steve~
